    I assume he means that you should build your own category structure rather than a category dump that is being used by all of the get rich quick folks.

    Brent i will say Human edited as the first point. If a directory it's human edited, then the rest comes with it.

    Agree with above, although I also hate cookie cutter directories.
    I do understand not every owner has few hundreds dollars to plunge in to design right off the bat. But then again, unique look pays off.
    As far as the other factors, I would never pay for a listing if directory itself wasn't ranking high for its own keywords, including category pages.
    Traffic & SERPs those two are number 1 in my book.

    Yes more importantly the directories should be human edited. This is another characteristic of a good directory.

    Great list, thanks. Obviously quality is the most important. Problem is, quality is very hard to find in today's online world... :S

    I agree with your all points and we should always keep these points in mind while choosing paid directories.

    If a directory have page rank on inner pages that means it is properly optimised for search engines like google.
    I think www.mastbusiness.com is a perfect directory which meet all requirements.
